Cletrac Model F

Cletrac Model F

The 1920–1922 Cletrac Model F is an impressive example of early tracked tractor engineering and innovation.

Introduced in 1920, the Model F weighed approximately 1,900 pounds and was capable of pulling an impressive 90% of its own weight. Its compact tracked design gave it excellent traction and made it especially useful in conditions where conventional wheeled tractors could struggle.

One of the Model F’s most recognizable features is its unusual “high-five” sprockets, which give the tractor a distinctive appearance. It also utilized a floating roller chain inside the track system, an innovative design that eliminated the need for conventional track wheels.

With its unique engineering, unmistakable track system, and rugged early-20th-century design, the Cletrac Model Frepresents an important period in the development of agricultural and industrial machinery.
